The original strength is health. It is so important it is called the foundational necessity for all types of endeavors of accomplished of human life. The books opine that good health is the implement to accomolish dharma,(moral duties) artha (prosperity) karm(wordly desires) moksha( ultimate enlightment salvation of sorrows) . HE who is not healthy can not transact his duties efficiently and righteously cannot,can not acquire prosperity cannot be successful in fulfilling his aspirations nor can he enjoy relinquishment from sorrows and tentions. For all these four healthy body and mental well being are necessary. There is no pleasure anywhere in the world if health is not maintained.He, who continuous to moan with pain illness does not even get relief from uneasiness and impatience- how can such a poor soul get even abite of pleasure? The impotant of health is so evident that there cannot be a two opinions on it. Health is prime amongst the elements of strength required for achieving and using the desirable things in the world. In the absence of health the life becomes joy less inactive painful and burdensome.Good health is one natural state gifted by nature. Leaving aside some exceptions this gift is ordinaly available to all beings. Observe the animals and birds in the jungle- is even one of them seen ill? Groups of dear,hords of cattle in forest jump and move like balls. Pigs, elephant, peacocks ducks,parrots,cerows,cuckoos, starling, nightgales .How nicely do crocerodiles, tortoise and frogs frolic in water.Never do any of them suffer from headache,cold, fever, arthritis or jaundice. When their time in the world is over they live their bodies easily. They donot need doctors. Poor creatures they donot consume bottles of medicines, they are not fortunate enough to listen to any health sermons,visits to health resorts and sanatoria is not in their fate; but still hey are always healthy. Those unnfortunate domestic animals and birds on the contrary, often lose their health as a result of the activities of their owerners.Even then in many ways they are comparatively better off health- wise then their owners; they rarely fall sick and if they do the illness is very little and not prolonged in most cases.
